Asian BBQ Chicken

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons lime juice (about 1 lime)
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon curry powder
• 3-4 garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 teaspoon ginger, fresh (grated)
• 8 chicken thighs (boneless, skinless)
• green onions, sliced (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine everything but the chicken and optional green onions in a small bowl. (See note.) Whisk to dissolve brown sugar. Place marinade and chicken in a zip-lock bag. Pop that bag in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, or longer if you have it (even overnight).

2. 2

   Preheat a grill (or an indoor grill pan or broiler). Spray cooking surface with cooking spray and place chicken on it to cook. Cook for 5-10 minutes on each side depending on the thickness. Using a digital thermometer, cook chicken until it is a minimum temperature of 165°F. However, you’ll want to aim for between 170-175°F for improved flavor and texture.

3. 3

   Optional: garnish with sliced green onions.
